Email Format Check in VB

Question

I want to check if email address is valid or not.

How can an email address be validated in VB using Regular Expressions?

([\w-+]+(?:\.[\w-+]+)*@(?:[\w-]+\.)+[a-zA-Z]{2,7})

Answer 1

    Function validateEmail(emailAddress) As Boolean

    Dim email As New Regex("([\w-+]+(?:\.[\w-+]+)*@(?:[\w-]+\.)+[a-zA-Z]{2,7})")
    If email.IsMatch(emailAddress) Then
        Return True
    Else
        Return False
    End If
